"Mr. Sharp is about the same" was the
answer given to all inauirers at Ludlow street
jail yesterday. But that was campaign story.
remarkable change had occurred in Mr..
Sharp's condition. At an early hour he had
arisen from bed and displayed a wonderful
access Of vigor. He was led toward the patent
reclining chair that is his refuge when he is
we'll enough to get out OF bed. But he pushed
away the hand that would have controlled him.
He spoke, and the unamisble accents at once
dispelled the first suspicion that he was beside
himself. The familiar harshness and inflrmity
Of temper convinced the hearers that 1t was
Jake Sharp who spoke and that he was in his
right mind.

Minnie Moore, the seventeen-year-oldd daughter
OF millionaire mill owner In Cohoes with

little of this worlds goods. A stormy scene
followed between father and daughter when
the marriage was made known to him, and he
forbade her to darken his doors again until she
separated forever from Michigan. The girl wife
was true to her husband, however, and shared
his humble home in preference to the hand

born to them. but 1t died. Michigan found en-
ployment with Macy Il Co. Of New York, but
soon returned to Cohoes, and is now lock

This afternoon Mrs. Michigan came to Troy,
accompanied by her maid, a dusty damsol

CLYDE, N. Y, Oct. 91.-Although this Ia n
very lively campaign in Wayne county, and
there is an abundance OF stump speeches and
political meetings, the canvass Of two Of tho
young women Of this county for election as
School Commissioners is by far tho most in
teresting and unique feature OF It. There has
never been such general enthusiasm in the
canvass Of any local candidate in these parts
as in that of these young women. In the First
or eastern district OF Wayne county Miss Nellie
L. Cook Of Wolcott Is the regular Democratic
candidate for School Commissioner and Miss
Ellen A. Clark OF Macedon Is the Prohibition
candidate for School Commissioner in the Sec
ond or western district OF the county. The
First district usually goes Republican by
several hundred majority each fall. and
when Everett O'Neill, q bright young man
from Cornell University, was nominated by the
Republicans for School Commissioner four
weeks ago, 1t was generally thought his nomi-
nation was equivalent to an election. When
tho Democratic Convention assembled In tho
hotel at Rose two weeks later there was no
candidate for the nomination. The delegates

myra, hearing Of the success that Miss Cook
was having in the, eastern district, were re.
joicod In the hope that Miss Clar k might effect
her election by the same sort OF personal can
vass through her district, and so informed their
candidate. She refused outright to visit any
one, or to personally ask any one to vote for
her. Miss Clark Is n very good speaker, and
last week began tour of stumping the west
ern Wayne district. There are not enough
prohibition young men in the whole county
to receive her In each town and escort
her to the speaking place In the style
that Miss Cook Is to have, and. more
than that, Miss Clark refused to have any
brass band preceding or following her In any
town. She has spok en- In live places. and not
wilhstandng that she will not allow any BOOM
ing for her. she has att racted very large audi:
ences In each. At Marion the hall was packed
and many were turned away. The novelty OF o
young woman running for local political Of
flee and making canvass for herself is a very
strong attraction. Miss Clark deals very little
with political matters In her speeches She
argues that women are eligible to be Commits
sioners of Schools, and that in rural districts
they are better adapted to manage the public
schools than men. because OF their knowledge
OF tho needs and characteristics Of children.
At Newark last evening Miss Clark addressed
n very large audience and won many more
votes. She lacks the personal attractions and
affability Of Miss Cook, and there Is doubt OF
her election unless she very soon changes the
manner OF her canvass.

NICOLL,S TREACHERY.
A Democrat Using Democratic Patronage
to Defeat the Democratic Ticket.


A Wall street man, Democrat from the
top OF his scalp to his bunions. remarked yes
terday OF De Lancey Nicoll's candidacy that It
represented the effulgent newness OF q brass
young lawyer" When Mr.. Nicoll accepted the
nomination at Republican hands he was guilty
of official and political dishonor.
"Nicoll was Il County Democrat" the Wall
street man continued. He was appointed to
his place In the District Attorneys office by
County Democrat and because OF his allegiance
to the Democratic party.
Don't for O moment believe that any preyi-
GUS reputation as lawyer secured him the

Island by his friend, Mr. MARITIME. BY easy
stages, after he got $500 place given to him
by The Democratic party. he graduated into an
expert tennis player, and dude who spent a
good part OF his leisure time before his mirror.
Here is a Democratic official accepting
money from. Democratic patronage, running
on Republican ticket, and trying to defeat
the nominees OF the Democratic party. In my
opinion Nicoll is worse than a traitor"
